WHEAT IN THE NORTHWEST

An Enormous Crop In Minnesota
and Dakota--Interesting Figures.
MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Oct. 10.-There
was food of wheat poured into Min
neapolis yesterday. Large receipts are
expected next week if the weather
is favorable. The amount of wheat now
in store in elevators and warehouses in
Minnesota and Dakota, outside of Min
neapolis, st. Paul and Duluth, is 10,S29,-
600 bushels. On Oct. the amount was
10, 1925, 900 bushels distributed along the
several lines of railroad. There was on
the line of the Manitoba, 4,S20,0 600 bush
els; on the Chicago and Northwestern,
1926, 900 bushels; Omaha, 275 900 bushels
Minneapolis and Pacific, $1,000; along
the several lines of the Milwaukee and
st. Paul, 1,541 900 bushels; Northern
Pacific, $4,000 bushels; Minneapolis
and st. Louis, 351 900 bushels; st. Pau
and Duluth, &C, 600 bushels; Minnesota
and Northwestern, 10000 bushels; and
along the Red River, 1000 bushels
making total as stated.
Oct. % last year the amount in store
along the same lines was 1852 900 bush
els. The stock in store Oct. in Mime
apolis, st. Paul and Duluth, was $3.50,
937 bushels, against II, 207, 1924 bushels
last year, on Oct. %.
The elevator system contains but A
per cent of the wheat held by it, les
than month later, one year ago Las
years crop was 30 much above ordinary
calculation that people had determined
not to put the present too low. The
official estimates intimate that the tota
is some 100000 bushels more thar
last year. That calculation is undoubt
eddy at fault. The final outcome of the
crop of year ago resulted in bringing
out not less than 100,000,000 bushels
from Minnesota and Dakota. Tha
amount will not be reached, perhaps, by
some 10000, 900 bushels this crop.

THE NEW RATES.

The new rates made by the Minneap-
oils & st Louis road to take effect Oct
26th, between Chicago and Mankato
have been announced and are as fol.
lows:
1st I'd Sd 4th 5th A B @ d r
53 AZ 80 q 49, 182 16 IA IL
These rates make a revolution in
freights from Chicago and put Mankato
jobbers upon an equal footing with
those of st. Paul. The debt Mankato
business men owe the st. Louis road for
taking the initial step in this
matter is no small one, and they
are in honor bound to give the
NJ. & st. L. all the encouragement they
can. Though the old roads may now
wheel into line, it can hardly be forgot
ten that they have stood back for years,
and are only now brought to justice by
the movement of new rival. The Rock
Island and Albert Lea Route are likely
to haul considerable freight to Mankato
hereafter.

THE New York Sun has this following
to say IN regard to the telegraph consol
idation:
The establishment of the Western
Union in the undisputed monopoly o.
so great and vital public service as the
telegraph will not be reviewed with
content or resignation by the public
The distrust of Mr.. Gould and his asso-
ciates, and the suspicion that attaches to
their methods and practices, are too pro.
found and too well rooted in the public
mind to admit of such men being accept.
ed as the trustees of great public SER
vice. We should not be prepared to in.
trust Mr.. Gould and his colleagues with
the administration of the postal system
of our country. 1t would imply, in the
public estimation, grave calamity. And
yet his administration of the telegraph
is likely to be much more prejudicial to
public and private interests than his ad.
ministratson of the postal system could
possibly be.
1t is long lane that has no turning,
but 1t may as we'll be understood now as
States shall not acquire the telegraphs
of the country, and that no Vaccinations
of Mr.. Gould, and no oppression of in
dividuals, pubic or private, will ever
blackmail and coerce the people of this
country into consenting that the West.
ern Union shall be unloaded upon the
government. And there will be other
and independent telegraphs, too.
